Notes:
(1) In my letter of 25 September 1971, to the President of the USA Mr. Richard
Nixon - I proposed an Idea for Urban Communication. This includes controlling all the traffic in a city, a complete halting
of traffic accidents, total organization of urban and inter-urban communication and the possibility of make all driving automatic,
without the need of drivers. My proposal was to put small transmitters and receivers in every car in the city. The signals
from the transmitters be received by small receivers along the sides of the roads, as well as in large receiver stations and
communications satellites. Using big computers may allow the control of all the traffic in the entire city, and avoid accidents,
by sending warning signals to the drivers in each car. The answer of the US Embassy
in Tel Aviv to my proposal was that the engineers in the US had checked
my idea and concluded that it was not feasible. I answered then that I believe that within 30 years the idea will implement.
Today, after 37 years, many parts of my idea implement in cities all over the world. However, I believe that it may take 5
to 10 years for all aspects of the idea to completely implemented. The needed technology exists. It is now a matter of making
the proper decisions. I believe that such control over urban communications is even more important now, after the awful terror
attack in the New York City and Washington DC, on 11 September 2001. If a tall building is suspected to collapse within seconds,
as happened with the World Trade Center, all the cars in the city should be warned immediately - within seconds so that the
all traffic in the city could changed immediately. Only a system based on urban communications, such as I had proposed, may
be useful in critical situations such as that one in New York. It can
warn of collapsing bridges during earthquakes, major floods, or hurricanes, and many other catastrophes. I think that one
relying on traditional radios in the cars for such situations is not appropriate. There should be a specific warning system
in each vehicle for emergency use only. Please click for the Letter and Article.
(2) My idea regarding a new kind of Family
Bank Account, was submitted to a small bank in Israel in 26 October 1999. This bank had examined the idea from many aspects for about
a year and eventually decided that it is too small for implementing the idea. I plan to suggest this idea to a larger bank
which manages the accounts of many families.
(3) My idea, Suggestion Law Courts Should Function as Social Hospitals (in Hebrew), was sent in 28 August
2000 to the Minister of Justice and to the General Secretary of the Supreme Court of Israel. The main idea in the suggestion
was that Courts should regard each case as a social wound and treat it with analogous procedures used in hospitals for real
body wounds. In my suggestion I have pointed out that the idea may be useful not only for the Israeli courts but also for
any court in the world. I received an answer from the office of the Minister of Justice, from 7 September 2000, saying that some of my ideas actually implemented and the others be discussed in the
future.
(4) A new idea that may resolve the problems encountered in using
points in the INTERNET instead of money (in Hebrew). Was sent than to the site www.nfc.co.il
